They are in apsw.html which is the same as website.

You are missing both the python development files and the SQLite
development files.  The former should be called something like
python-dev using the system packaging tool (I'm an Ubuntu man myself so
I don't know the magic for CentOS).

Please read the building section! Quote:

  By default whatever SQLite 3 you already have on
  your system is used. If you place a copy of the
  headers and library in a sqlite3  subdirectory then
  that will be used instead.

It isn't exactly explicit that not having any SQLite at all will be a
problem :-)

That exact sequence of steps should work.  Missing the python
development libraries is cause of many of the errors.  I suspect other
stuff is missing as well.  To completely capture your session, do the
following as step zero:

  $ script

It will say:  Script started, file is typescript

It starts a new shell and everything you do will be captured to a file
named typescript.  As step 10, do:

  $ exit

That will exit the new shell and say: Script done, file is typescript

You can now put the file 'typescript' into pastebin.
